John and I have a new addition to our family (no, I'm not pregnant). We got a kitten on Saturday from an animal rescue organization. They have a no kill policy and rescue animals from the county shelter that are about to be euthanized. She is 4 months old and we named her Kayala. She has all of her shots and is spayed already but might need to be declawed (especially if you ask John). She hasn't quite figured out yet that she can jump up onto things which is a good and not so good. Because she doesn't know how to jump she won't be a problem getting on the counters and table but to get on the couch or bed she stands on her hind legs and reaches up to attach her claws and then pulls herself up the rest of the way. This doesn't work so well especially when we are in bed and she uses John's arm to be her anchor. That happened twice in a row the other night and she drew some blood both times. She is still a little shy around us and hides if we walk toward her but if we leave her alone she usually comes to us and wants to be petted. I had to take the pictures on my phone because my camera broke so they aren't very good.
In other news this weekend, we went to the see UF pound Charleston Southern into the ground on Saturday night. It was a pretty good way to start the season and we were SO glad it was a night game. For the past couple of years, the first game of the season starts and noon and here in Florida at noon it is HOT! The weather has started to cool off a little earlier than most years and the game didn't start till 7 so we had a pretty nice time. To top the evening off, my alma mater, BYU, against the odds beat Oklahoma! What a day! I love football season!!!!!!
